dontfeelcold,

I have tried both the modified and the touring(Spashett version)on 1/10 touring. The touring version has definitely more power & is more aggressive. It really depends what class you are racing in. The Modified versions are mostly for off road.
Yes, that is exactly what JOE (from Team Orion) told me before I purchased the Touring version for my Pro 4.......beside soldering the wires on the endbell is a pain, this motor is AWESOME.

Default Brakes..

I have a question .. I have been running 2 wheel Mod at or local track with a V2 11x2. And I dont know if its my motor or speedo or setup maybe. But I can not brake when the cars in the air.. At the end of the stright my brakes are ok I can get the car to spin-out.. But when the rear wheel are in the air I dont think the brake work aswell. I have a hard time bring the nose down after a Jump.

I'm running the LRP Comp 2 speedo and I'm running the stock Diode, going to try and put one or two more diodes on this weekend see if it helps.. Does Anyone have any thoguhts ???

I have acquired a peak surikarn edition V2 motor. I have one question about the motor:
How do I remove the bearing in the endbell for maintainance? I like to regularly remove the rear endbell bearing for maintainance and replacement, but I found the brush tubes arein the way!
Any idea's?

There are very small, thin o-rings on both sides of the bearings. Carefully remove the outer o-ring, then push the bearing out. Done it a few times myself. If you use an ex-acto be carefull not to cut the o-ring.

The small o-rings that go on the armature go on top of the motor shims.
This motor does not require a phenolic washer.
